: rear end clunk

When I pull out with my truck, going straight, I get a very harsh clunk that I can really feel and is very loud.


If I pull out while turning there is no noise and no clunk.


Is this my locker engaging? And if so, should you be able to feel it? Or hear it? Any help on this is appreciated. Thanks.

I get the same thing when I hammer it down going straight. I hear it when the LSD kicks in.

But mine does it all the time, even when pulling out easy. (except when turning)


What is the LSD, the locker?

LSD= Limited Slip Differential. It's odd that you hear it even when you're easy on it. I'm at a loss. Anyone else got an idea?

Grease the drive line splines. The G80 in my truck is either locked or unlocked. No limited slip. Later! Frank Edited by: Frank Blum

Isn't the G80 a limited slip?http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Confused.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Confused.gif
